MSMA Scholarships!

MSMA is very proud of the partnerships we enjoy with The Ohio State University, the University of Kentucky and the University of Tennessee. In support of education in the meat industry – and as a way to give back -- MSMA provides one $1,000 scholarship to each of these three universities.

We ask each school to choose the recipient from their Meat Science’s graduate program. Our hope is to support a student who will remain in the field; that way our funds will be supporting the future of this great industry.

Money is raised through various events throughout the year. For instance, all of MSMA’s Silent Auction (held in conjunction with our Annual Convention) proceeds goes toward our scholarship fund. In addition, funds from our Mulligan sales (held in conjunction with our Annual Hot Dog Open/Sue McNabb Memorial) as well as part of designated sponsorship dollars go toward funding these scholarships.

We thank our membership for their support of these scholarship; we know without your support they could not be possible.
